It was a sort of organic thing. I never went, 'I must be an actress.' I thought, 'I think I could do this. I think I could be good at this.' I would just get sort of hungry when I read something I thought I can do well, whether it was in books or in scripts or if I saw a certain movie. It sort of happened quite naturally.
I think if people value democracy, they had damn well better get out and exercise their right to vote while their vote still means something.
People write about getting sick, they write about tummy trouble, they write about having to wait for a bus. They write about waiting. They write three pages about how long it took them to get a visa. I'm not interested in the boring parts. Everyone has tummy trouble. Everyone waits in line. I don't want to hear about it.
This is a serious, serious condition that is also called postpartum psychosis. And that's where, literally, you get so bad that you end up either hurting the baby or killing yourself.
You can be in Ohio and shoot your own web series, if you want. If this had been around when I was in high school, I can guarantee you that my friends and I would have been shooting our own television shows and putting them online and trying to get as many hits as possible.
In space, you don't get that much noise. Noise doesn't propagate in a vacuum.
As players, we always have a way to get back at you.
I think we have to bottom out. When the studios jump out of the ring, perhaps the artist can get back in.
I just want real reactions. I want people to laugh from the gut, be sad from the gut - or get angry from the gut.
I would get ill before going onstage - something about getting in front of people, and if they don't laugh, I'm a bomb. I got over it when somebody laughed.
I get inspired by my friends, and if a friend is a writer, that is even deeper.
I work like a dog when I have to, but when I'm not working, I get terribly lazy and could sit around all day.
Sometimes when you get old, you get a star on Hollywood Boulevard.
Inequality can have a bad downside, but equality, for its part, sure does get in the way of coordination.
I thought when I started meditation that I was going to get real calm and peaceful and it's going to be over. It's not that way; it's so energetic. That's where all the energy and creativity is.
The more unique your film is and unusual it is and difficult it is, the harder it is to get it financed. That's why a lot of good filmmakers are doing television. They do HBO movies.
I was always the kid at the side of the playground, looking at the other kids. I didn't know how to get into the group. I was quiet and bookish, a bit of a geek. I was into orienteering when my friends were out clubbing.
Everything that we used to think got taught at home now seemingly has to be taught in the public school system, and something is going to get lost in the process.
I am literally smaller than life. I am an unextraordinary-looking person. I've seen people trying to hide their disappointment when they meet me, and I have to watch them get over it.
When you combine ignorance and leverage, you get some pretty interesting results.
Unfortunately, the public might not know that we get a script usually two days before shooting. So sometimes I'm shooting an episode and don't even know how it's going to end because I haven't read that yet.
As I get older and I get a few more years experience I become more like Dad, you know, King Lear.
Reference to the territory and total disregard for the nationality of the companies is of course the best guarantee that competition assessment remain just that and doesn't get affected by trade or other considerations.
I don't know, as long as I get to evolve and grow as an actor and as a person, that's the stuff I'm after.
For women in my family, in Korean culture, women are really valued in their youth, and then when they get older, it's like they almost become irrelevant.
When I get up and work out, I'm working out just as much for my girls as I am for me, because I want them to see a mother who loves them dearly, who invests in them, but who also invests in herself. It's just as much about letting them know as young women that it is okay to put yourself a little higher on your priority list.
You know when pillowcases come out of the dryer and they get really wrinkled? I iron them.
I gave John Wayne the push he needed to get that Oscar.
Republicans many times can't get the words 'equality of opportunity' out of their mouths. Their lips do not form that way.
You can't play Batman in a serious, square-jawed, straight-ahead way without giving the audience the sense that there's something behind that mask waiting to get out, that he's a little crazed; he's strange.
By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you'll become happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
I don't eat cereal actually... Frosted Flakes... that's as close as I can get.
Of course I danced a lot when I was making 'Swingers.' The swing music scene was big in Hollywood, and I went to places like The Derby. And, after I wrote it and was trying to get it made, I would go every week so I'd be good at dancing.
I love iTunes as much as anybody. It's very convenient and very easy. But there is nothing like the vibe that you get when you walk into a record store. And I think a lot of people are still thrilled to spend a half hour there and go through the bins and make some purchases.
You have to have a sense of humor about life to get through it.
Every time the Tories get a bit of power, they rip off all the things I love... The mining industry. Milk.
